Back Home


We are finally home! It was a long and necessary trip. We had 17 appointments in 5 weeks. Some of our supporting churches we visited we had not seen in about 8 years. All of our visits went very well. We had many things we were praying about and most of our request were answered over the last 5 weeks. Praise the Lord! The best part to our travels however, is coming home. It was a little odd coming home to a hotel, but never the less, good to be home! We will stay in a hotel for a couple of days for only $25 a night, and then get our camper set up somewhere. The camper is currently set up at a friends. He has been such a blessing during this awkward time. Our goal is to be in a home no later than early fall. We will look at homes and land to see what is available for purchase and pray that, if it be God's will, God will provide the funds needed to help us get into the home He wants. We are also still praying about the possibility of land and building a home. If we go the land route, we would also have to find a rental as well. Please keep these things in your prayers. We will try to update as often as possible.
Our first Sunday back was absolutely wonderful! We had 38 people including 2 visitors that had started comming a couple of weeks before we got home. Their names are Ross and Helena. They said they wanted to make Newcomb Baptist Church their home. Praise the Lord! Our people had a welcome home sign up and brought a feast for lunch. It was a great day in the house of the Lord!
We also would like to announce some wonderful news. Our oldest daughter Sadie is engaged. She entered into a courtship on her birthday, March 14th, with a fine young man named Chris Kelly. About a month later Chris proposed and put a beautiful ring on Sadie's hand. We are all so excited for the two of them. I will have Sadie and Chris post their stories in the near future.
I also forgot to share with everyone that a young man named Larren asked Christ to save him the Sunday we left on our trip. We are expecting many more to come to Christ with the many summer ministries that will start in about 3 weeks.
Thank you all so much for your prayers and support.

We have been gone 3 Sundays so far and all is well. God has blessed us with safety, health(only little bugs), and some ministry needs. The truth is, we are blessed more than we deserve.
We are currently in South Arkansas and have spent the day at a local fair. It has been great family time!
It is a little hard being gone on Easter, but I know all is well and God is working. I will be preaching at two different churches, both Sunday morning and Sunday evening.
We will also have the opportunity to spend some time with my parents in Summersville, Mo.
Please pray for our family as we continue to travel.
Thanks so much!

Travel update

I am sorry we did not get a letter out at the end of the month. I have had computer issues. I
think all is fixed but I did have to reenter all contact information. If you have a minute and can email
me current contact information, that would be great. We will give a more detailed update at the end
of April or beginning of May.
We are currently on the road for a little bit while the weather warms up back west. Living in
the camper when it is cold is not the easiest. We will be home at the end of April and begin looking in
to the possibilities of a future home. Please keep this in your prayers.
God is definitely still at work in Newcomb. The Sunday we left we had a teenage young man
come to Christ. We also had two saved at our youth rally. Praise the Lord!
Thank you all so much for your prayers and support.

Because of Jesus,
